E-Fitness Workshops

As part of Swiss Digital Day, Zermatt Tourism is offering workshops centred on e-fitness to its service partners and other interested parties. This year we will address topics like the future of payment, digital advertising campaigns, successful content in e-mail marketing and protecting the personal data of guests.

The e-Fitness workshops will take place as stand-alone events in the weeks leading up to the official Swiss Digital Day on 10 November 2021. If you are interested in any of our e-Fitness workshops, please register using the links below.

Time: From 09:00 to 11:00 hrs
Place: Seminar room, Hotel Pollux
Speaker: David Leiggener, E-Commerce Zermatt Tourism

The smartphone replacing your wallet – ten years ago this still sounded like a futuristic dream. Today, it’s no big deal. Mobile payment has arrived in Switzerland. The measures to contain the coronavius pandemic have accelerated this development, but not caused it. Fewer and fewer guests still pay with cash today, and guests who cannot use their preferred payment option can quickly become annoyed. The demands on payment options have changed, both on site and for online bookings. They need to be as fast and uncomplicated as possible, yet maximum security is still the non plus ultra.

We look at the payment options of the future and those already among the most advanced on the market. You can investigate the payment means and variants that are gaining ground and how best meet this development.
